Dartmouth to enforce on campus hard liquor prohibition

Gawker - In a speech at Dartmouth's campus , the college's president, Philip J. Hanlon, announced that there will be a campus-wide ban on hard liquor from March 30 onward. The New York Times reports that this decision is in response to a "spate of student misbehavior that has tarnished the reputation" of the school.

Hanlon's speech referenced Greek life on campus, explaining that there will be other activities put into place that students can access as alternatives to joining fraternities or sororities. Hanlon also spoke firmly about Greek life in reference to the ban, explaining that if the organizations didn't comply, there would be consequences.
